About

UNDA | Sleepless Design is an exclusive Furniture and Lighting Design Company, from Portugal, inspired in the beauty of the Mythological World.

Since the dawn of time, mankind has always been fascinated by beauty; it can be the cause of his greatest joy or of his biggest displeasure. Poets and singers have sang paeans about man’s fascination with beauty and the ancient civilizations commemorated beautiful things. In fact, people were so enamored with this concept that they actually deified beauty by identifying and worshipping Female Goddesses. Extraordinary Tales and Odes were created inspired in this magnificent world, and one of them touched our souls; the Tale of “Ondine and her Curse”.

When you acquire a UNDA piece, you’re not just is buying furniture; you are taking with you a fragment of Art History, transforming your space into something mystical, dramatic, emotional and beautiful, becoming yourself a part of this storytelling.

Mission | Through our pieces, we are the Storytellers of our real world. We want to give you a full sense of this mystic, glorifying and admirable kind of life, creating art inspired in myths of Gods and Goddesses, legendary Warriors, mythological Creatures, real and powerful Men and Women that walk or walked this earth Godlike, leaving their footprint in Architecture, Fashion or Technology.
